Does Sound Blaster card SB0220 has FM capability? I need an OPL3 sound card, as it is in my wish list for my vintage collection. Currently uses a PCI slot board for a vintage computer.
It does not have OPL3.
The ONLY PCI cards that have real OPL3 are the Yamaha YMF series.
You can get a pretty close approximation with an ESS based card's ESFM.
Does your motherboard have an SB-LINK or PC-PCI connector? If so, you can do away with all setup hardships and just hook up the cable between the sound card and motherboard for way easier / more reliable real DOS mode sound support.
As for the OPL3 on the Yamaha based cards, it should work no matter what as it doesn't use IRQ or DMA.
Does the AOpen sound card I bought from you has FM in it? What is your board when you use the sound card?
